15967. WORLD RESPONSES TO THE "FINAL SOLUTION" OF THE NAZIS. This paper argues that the Allied governments, Jewish organizations and the Pope all failed to respond appropriately to the Nazi effort to exterminate the Jews, simply because the information about the “Final Solution” was not believed or understood at the time. On the other hand, there were some altruistic individuals and groups that did respond with an effort to rescue European Jews. Written 2003. 6 pages; 20 footnotes; 5 bibliographic sources. 1,471 words.
